For the largo number of pntlcnta who could not be hospitalized bcciiuao no bcria were available, the outpatient drug therapy program proved new hope for restored health. Local health depnrtmenta, with the aupport of county and atate health workera and the cooperation of private phy sicians, were responsible for making the program work. Because of tho poor finan cial condition of the atntc, funda needed for druga had to be obtained locally. When-! ever practical, patients were encouraged to contribute' aomcthlng toward the coat of j the program. The authora be lieve the.ie pnymenta, how-i ever imnll, "had a good pay-' etiological effect on the pa-j tlenta, encouraging them to maintain treatment," aa well I aa helping to enae the burden on loral hanlth departmcnta.

The home care program Included patients who had been hospitalized and discharged, Of this group, 83 per cent were dlachnrged with medical consent aa no longer needing treatment. Those who entered the program without prior hospital care and were ao dis charged numbered only 20 per cent. Hospitalization, therefore, Is still recommend ed "whenever practical." The atudy revealed, how ever, that the almple objec tives of the program had been achieved: "to protect the health of the community by reducing the sources of Infec tion and to Improve the health of the patlenti through treatment."
